What is Morse code?

Morse code is a simple but powerful communication system. In the 1800s, Morse code helped pioneers communicate across distances. Early Morse code was minimal, encoding just a handful of letters. Its use grew, prompting the creation of a broader code set. In 1851, a standardised form called International Morse Code was introduced.
